St. John’s holds off Marquette in Milwaukee
St. John’s came away with another win on Sunday, picking up a 75-73 victory over the Marquette Golden Eagles. These teams have been trending in opposite directions since their match-up on January 16th. Marquette escaped that game with a 73-71 victory, but followed it up with two poor losses to DePaul and Providence. As Marquette entered a losing streak, St. John’ s rattled off three wins in a row including wins at UConn and DePaul. With both teams on the fringes of the bubble, this win could prove to elevate St. John’s into the tournament while likely ending Marquette’s tournament dreams.
